2. Raise Hand for Attention
In order to get your attention I will raise my hand, when you see it, finish your sentence and direct your attention to me.
If someone around you continues to talk, simply raise your hand so they know I am ready to speak.

3. The “Blue Bell”
Another way I will get your attention is by ringing the blue bell. When you hear the blue bell ring that means I have something to say, finish your sentence and direct your attention to me.
